[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Ji-hee] North Korean leader Kim Jong-un inspected the restoration situation during his visit to Eunpa County in Hwanghaebuk-do, according to North Korean media reports.

The North Korean state media, Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), reported on the 12th, "Comrade Kim Jong-un conducted an on-site guidance at the disaster restoration construction site in the Daecheong-ri area of Eunpa County, Hwanghaebuk-do," adding that "he specifically understood the progress of the restoration construction and the construction plans." Chairman Kim inspected the restoration project carried out over a month with the deployment of the People's Army and evaluated, "The entire construction site is bustling, and the army-style propaganda and agitation work is being well conducted."

He also emphasized, "(The restored rural houses) have completely shaken off the outdatedness of the era and the traces of flood damage, settling in on a large scale," and "The fact that such a picturesque village appearance has emerged in just over 30 days is a miracle that only our People's Army, with loyalty to our Party and passionate love for our people, can create."

KCNA also released images of Chairman Kim at the site, removing his jacket and inspecting the restored houses in short sleeves. He was also seen entering the rice paddies directly, examining the growth status of the rice plants and showing a concerned expression.

Earlier, Chairman Kim had visited Daecheong-ri, which suffered significant damage from the monsoon rains, in early last month. His return to the flood-affected site to personally check the restoration progress is interpreted as a move to soothe public sentiment suffering from the triple hardships of North Korean sanctions, infectious diseases, and natural disasters.
